CRAZY SUNSET

Golden bursts of fire,
Raging above and below ,

A vast golden universal glow,

With  shades  of grey and black intwined,

The rising and falling ,
Smoke of a different kind.

The small and big trees in a row,

Reflected below as high and low,

A belt of a clear blue sky,

Oh ! what a crazy sunset , I sigh !

A symmetrical beautiful reflection ,

A picture of amazing perfection,

As clear as crystal  each silhouette ,

A feast for you and me to see.



foot notes:-

Bursts of gold  melting into saffron. Sunset is the time of day when the sky looks like it was on fire emitting  grey and black smoke . 

I can never get tired of watching the sunset.

[“One day,' you said, 'I watched the sunset forty-three times!'

And a little later you added:

'You know, when one is that sad, one can get to love the sunset.'

'Were you that sad, then, on the day of the forty-three sunset?'

But the prince made no answer.” 

― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince]
